When
I teach at writers conferences, I often get the question, "Do I really
need an agent?" Well, you'll be happy to know I can confidently and
unequivocally answer that question in three simple words: Yes, no, and maybe.
When
I wrote my first book, I knew I didn't want an agent. I mean, why would I want
to give a whopping 15 percent of my earnings to a total stranger when I could
do it myself and keep all that money?
